“Queen Victoria and the Romanovs: 60 Years of Mutual Distrust” is a fascinating journey through the intimacy of royal politics and diplomacy, and a study in the universality of family squabbles, even in the most exalted of families.
While the Russian Revolutions claimed many Romanov victims, Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna, the mother of Nicholas II, famously survived. The life of this fascinating woman, born a Danish princess, is explored in C.W. Gortner’s novel, The Romanov Empress.
The life of Dowager Empress Marie Fyodorovna (1847-1928) is the story of a real-life Cinderella, who ended her days in exile: as the last remaining symbol of the Russian monarchy, devastated by Russian Revolution of 1917.
